The 50.00 for the all day TnT is nothing new at all. We have always have an open test day the day before some events for years. It has been 75.00 in the past but that also got in a couple of crew members. The Friday before the Citrus Nationals will probably be an open test day and be similar to this. Again this is nothing new. Most of the vehicles that have come to these days in the past were slick tire race cars that were going to be in that weekends races.

The regular TnT that will be on the Wednesday and Friday nights will be at 25.00 to race and 10.00 for spectators.

I'll wait another week and go on 11/12/08 Wednesday. Only $25, it may only be 5 hours compared to the 7 hour Saturday event, but I'd rather use the $25 I saved on gas to get to the track, race, and get back home.

Good to hear Ed.

2 questions (if you can answer them):

#1: The citrus nats will happen this year?

#2: Rumor mill on the track going IHRA?
